    twitch combat is not the problem, they'll get it worked out- it's just a matter of time.

    I'm not saying they should just ditch twich. But if they can't get it to work,* and they have to either ditch twitch, or just keep twitch but make PVP utterly meaningless, the former > the latter.

    Carebear = no-consequences PVP, or no PVP at all
    Broken twitch PVP that is so random that the devs have to keep sieging off and safe zones on = crappy carebear twitch PVP, probably enjoyable only by ppl who suck at shooters :P

    But, by all means, twitch > non-twitch if they can get twitch working..

    *Note: it's not crazy to suggest they may never be able to get the performance to support twitch in the live gameplay environment, which is very complex and gives players the ability to drastically alter the game-world in real time, presenting serious technical challenges that are possibly insurmountable given the time and resources available to NG.

    Again, people with very high-end systems are having the same sync problems in some geographical areas of the game. But, since you seem to want to continue a debate you've already lost, I've used my sig to commemorate your hopeless inability to reach logical conclusions. See below, friend.

    So your saying Random Twitch Pvp, vs A system that uses DICE Rolls. Last time i checked, unless the dice are loaded.... there pretty damn random too.

    Having a random component to the mechanics (hitrolls) >> total randomness of outcome because the system is buggy and doesn't work

    Or instead of creating an entire new system...they could just fix the problems...

    Its the same thing. You click a button and you either hit or miss, and theres no way in which you can alter the outcome. The Method is different, but its the same outcome. The only difference is eventually Twitch Pvp will work,
    like it does in DF and Various Hack and Slash Titles, Or the game would fail before they could make a whole new combat system, seriously they wont have time to implement a turnbased system now. This is a Twitch pvp game, Sorry if you dont like it/suck at it. Deal with it.

    MMO's change constantly, and a glimpse at the past history of some AAA games will show that radical changes do happen from time to time. Entire character classes have been removed (or added) in some games. Changes to the way systems work ingame are not unusual.
    I know of two who have gotten refunds in the past week. Xsyon may hold the record for refund-giving.

    Really? MMO's change? Who woulda thunk!

    Think you completely missed the point of my post.

    Yes, my intense dislike for twitch is the reason I said twitch > non-twitch. In fact, it's why I bought this twitch-PVP game! You're a regular Sherlock Holmes.

    To argue using statements of future events is silly.
    While I agree with that 100%, I feel the development team should be given the benefit of the doubt. Their patching efforts have been less than spectacular, but they have been consistent in making their improvements. After the next few hurdles are past, we should at least be left with a playable game. We've been told numerous times that the current form of combat will be totally revamped, and I personally am banking on that.

    Add:

    I hope they do get twitch based pvp working as it was reason #2 for me to play this game. Im simply stating (as I believe the OP was stating) that if the developer realizes he cannot add twitch based pvp correctly, that he choose a tried and true method rather then ignoring it.
